Going back to blogging about Arches National Park, I realized that I didn't write about Bill's favorite landmark in the park: Double Arch. It is an awe-inspiring twin-arch structure with the larger opening having the highest height in the park at 112 feet, and the third longest span at 144 feet. It is truly a magical structure and we were able to hike to it, walk around, climb it and walk underneath it. I must say I was praying that the colossal wonder would not come to its demise as I was under it. Other names Double Arch was called in the past include: Double Windows, Twinbow Bridges (I like this one) and the Jug Handles (I can see this one too).
As I said, Bill absolutely loved this arch(arches I should say) and took many photos; here are some.
And the view from Double Arch:
